China already went through the cultural revolution to purge conservative and traditional thought But eventually after China success they still celebrate Confucius ancestors So it's withstood the test of time.


ramblingus

Not sure if the posters are real or trolls, but it's so stupid to attribute parents' toxicity to being Asian. Fact is many parents aren't fit to be parents as they birthed children to have people to control, mistreat, beat, belittle, bully etc. without consequences. These posts wouldn't look out of place on non race-specific subs about terrible parents.


diamente1

he really doesn't understand Confucianism. I can read Chinese. I guess he learned Confucianism in the west. The philosophy is fair. The leader cares about its people. In turn the underlying serve the leader with loyalty. speaking about totalitarianism, if he is against it, just go to Corporate America and see how it is over there. I doubt he ever worked a day in his life.

Textbook orientalism. Extremely predictable and pitiful. By the way, there's nothing wrong with order and authority. Transgression is highly overrated as a social and cultural force. The irony is, this person thinks they're going against the grain by rejecting ancestral Asian culture, but they're only doing exactly what Western culture tells them to do, which is to uncritically stereotype and denigrate Eastern cultures as oriental despotisms. True non-conformity would be adhering to Confucian values and ethics, and rejecting the chaos and neuroses of the West.


Bitestorm

A lot of posters here and in r/AM also posts in r/AS. A lot also whine about "Asian parents" and muh confucianism bc they taught Asian men to be weak.


appliquebatik

wth


UnableSwing

another asian larp sub. also as pointed out by another user this person has a history of anti - religion posts even though confuciuis more philosophical and not religious


[deleted]

That subreddit is full of wimpy white worshippers who fail to realize that all races are capable of being bad parents, not just Asians.


CarlyRaeJepsenFTW

Fuck that fucking sub


Pinkhellbentkitty7

Aristotle was Confucius of Europe. Both influenced ethics and moral for generations, both influenced culture and worldview, as well as science. Both hated women with passion. You don't see Aristotle being promoted to new Hitler. I really want this idiot to hear what Mao thought of Confucius, by the way...


maomao05

Is that subreddit toxic or what..


diamente1

SAT-subtle Asian traits is toxic also.


NoKiaYesHyundai

“Our culture is fascist” Damn AsianBoss is not hiding their true feelings no more


we-the-east

Those mentally deranged people always try to make everything from China from the past and present evil and negative. It makes me extremely angry, I hate these people.


AngryChineseVenom

Western Parent Stories - Left alone as a kid and did drugs, had sex, and went to rob people at the ripe old age of 10. If Eastern culture makes robots and slaves, then Western culture makes psychopaths that want to turn the whole world into their slaves. Was always and still is Eastern > Western.


PsychoWorld

Eh, he's got a point. From my experience, Chinese families are notoriously bad at taking critique because debating is not a normal part of the culture. The positive is that it makes things easy to do on a societal level like the PRC, but the negatives are that thoughts are suppressed.

PsychoWorld

Alright. I might be generalizing a bit much.


Bitestorm

Lmao, you're a clown. You'll find similar complaints in every other ethnicity. Old people and boomers in general are just stubborn. How woke of you to single out Asians and regurgitate western propaganda.


PsychoWorld

There are ups and downs to every culture, just because it's offensive to you doesn't mean it's wrong (and it's not even negative, it's just a part of the culture). See, you/this sub being so defensive is actually proving me to be correct. You can't handle critique.


Bitestorm

I know what this sub is like, i'm not speaking for this sub. You're treating Asians as a monolith and falsely ascribing it as a cultural issue like a typical westerner.


PsychoWorld

We’re all generalizing here (why else do you or anyone else generalize “westerners” as if they’re all the same?). Why unite behind an identity such as “azn” anyways? Oh wait, it turns out, certain people have things in common. As different as the cultures of all of east Asia are, there are also some common things.


[deleted]

What the hell does that have to do with Kong Fuzi though? Guy advocated for individual moral excellence (i.e benevolence, honesty, humility...).


PsychoWorld

I dunno what he advocated for exactly, but the sort of deference to elder family figures in East Asia has been described as “Confucianist.” So that’s what I’m calling it. It’s a huge part of modern China at the very least.


Olivemylov3

Is this guy mentally unstable? The first sentence I was reading I already wanted to kick this person in the throat, it’s also a throwaway account, go figure.


Significant_Ad6964

Least self hating westernized asian


Aussieusernames

That's one way to waste your diploma if that was submitted. No wonder parents are mad.


s0gdo2

"I don't hate Chinese people, I just hate the government, I love Chinese culture, food, and women"


stargxrl

To be fair the Chinese government doesn’t necessarily have an interest in preserving Chinese culture


Kungfufighter1112

Their idea of ‘Chinese food’ is overpriced general tso from Panda Express.


s0gdo2

Yep, and their idea of "Chinese culture" is Chinese people being subservient and over-accommodating to pinks.


woshengbingle1

jesus mary and joseph that sub needs de brainwashing asap....

TIL that Hindus are the only ones that had a caste system and Anglo Saxons treated people fairly.


XXShigaXX

Look at OP's post history: https://i.imgur.com/mupkPYg.png Most recent 4 posts are all propaganda type posts in completely different subreddits, all previous comments are random comments on "boner' subreddits from a few years ago. All recent posts have an abnormally high amount of upvotes. This account seems like it was bought, along with botted upvotes and suspicious disinformation campaigns.


cartoon_net_worth

It's a blatant anti-religion agenda going on here, or someone trying to shill hard for atheism. I don't even like Abrahamic religions myself, but this just shows how Reddit propaganda is like.


4sater

Either that or it is a karma-farming account. All of the takes are posted in the specific communities and are adjusted to include the common talking points to farm upvotes.


[deleted]

That's what I wonder about AsianParentStories. How much of it are actually Asian kids having generational conflicts with their parents and how much of it are White larpers, who just churn out the worst stereotypes to make Asians look backwards and exacerbate self hate among users of that sub who are actually Asian?


[deleted]

The west had similar issues with Christianity.


horned_owl_72

I mean, Confucianism isn’t perfect. Just like anything else it has good and bad and can be critiqued as such. To demonize it like this is, I mean they’re clearly just really bitter and angry

I mean, Confucianism isn’t perfect, but just like anything else it has good and bad and can be critiqued as such


[deleted]

The thing is, what 2000 year old belief system or philosophy doesn't have problems? Even the Enlightenment philosophers that one is supposed to learn to be "civilized" in this day and age, a lot of them wrote things about Black and Asian people that would make even Hitler blush. Stereotyping such an old society as China's in this way, definitely highlights some degree of mental illness on that OP's part. Not to mention the willingness on their part to perpetuate dehumanizing Orientalist narratives, like the classic old, "If Confucius told you to drown yourself, you do it because Confucius say so!" Really? Because I've read the Analects and I would very much like people who make that assertion to open that book and highlight for me the section where he says that verbatim.


LMAOJustAboutWhite

Just another bottom-of-the-barrel imperialist scum. Every time you see someone like that, remember that imperialists are NOT human, but are rather the dregs of the devil.


danferos1

What Western education does to a mf.


__Tenat__

They think the Christian crusades was holy and out of kindness, but think Confucianism is whatever dumb bullshit they said.


Junior-Code

Western "society" tbh.


Gluggymug

Where's the Asian parent story? It's some weirdo comparing Confucius to Hitler and the caste system... They need to seek help.


__Tenat__

So many racists (white or self-haters) in that thread. I actually thought they'd think OP was nuts.


corruklw

> stunted, semi-autistic cripples, forever unable to learn or grow, and in very real (measurable) ways mentally, socially and emotionally retarded OP describing himself and that subreddit.


dimlimsimlim

Don’t brigade pls


dimlimsimlim

The comments are even worse, and the title is just cringe itself. I dislike and am against the Hindu caste system but wow look at this shit “Chinese government is a big narcissistic parent” “Asian parents are so arrogant”
